The samples were synthesized by means of wet glycine–nitrate technology annealed at the temperature 1200 °C for 6 h. The wide spectrum of characterization methods, such as X-ray spectroscopy, Energy Dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) analysis, SEM micrographs, thermomagnetic analysis, magnetic hysteresis loop measurement, and complex permeability spectra, was used for the study of relevant properties of synthetized materials.
